The True Philadelphia Podcast With Matt O'donnell

Nia Meeks, a communications strategist in Philadelphia, is a frequent panelist on Inside Story (Sundays at 11:30am on 6abc). She always arrives with well-informed ideas about the issues facing Philadelphia and the surrounding region. So I thought it would be enlightening (and also entertaining) to ask her to take part in this special True Philadelphia Podcast episode. Both of us came up with three HUGE ideas, without worry about feasibility or cost, that we think should happen now or in the near future. We came up with some really good ones - and maybe some really impossible ones. Recorded at the Center City offices of Greenberg Traurig, LLP on Monday, October 28, 2019. 2:05 Nia introduces herself, 3:17 We explain the idea behind this podcast, 5:39 We flip a coin to see who goes first, 5:59 I try again SPOILERS REVEALED BELOW THIS LINE - DO NOT READ IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO BE SURPRISED! 6:10 Matt's 1st idea - Eliminate political parties in Philadelphia 13:30 Nia's 1st idea - Add a service year for every public
